2017 Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn vs Limited

When it comes to a truck that can handle serious towing and hauling, and also deliver elegant features and a touch of class, the 2017 Ram 1500 is an excellent full-size, light-duty choice. While we have previously looked at the mid-range trims of this excellent truck (comparing the Bighorn, Sport and Laramie models) in this comparison we are pitting the 2017 Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn vs Limited trims.

While these luxury-laden models may deliver top features, they boast similar, powerful engine options. A 395-horsepower 5.7-liter V8 offering 410 pound-feet of torque is standard, while the 3.0-liter V6 EcoDiesel engine (rated for 240 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque) is available. Both of these engines come mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. These engines have a maximum towing rating of 10,640 pounds and 9,210 pounds, respectively, which means plenty of capability on the 2017 Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn and Limited trims along with comfort features.
